TECHNICAL FIELD

This application claims priority from Korean Patent Application No. 10-2011-0062395 filed on Jun. 27, 2011, in the KIPO, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

The present invention relates to an organic light emitting device in which a novel compound that is capable of largely improving a life span, efficiency, electrochemical stability and thermal stability of the organic light emitting device is included in an organic compound layer.

BACKGROUND ART

An organic light emitting phenomenon is an example of a conversion of current into visible rays by an internal process of a specific organic molecule. The organic light emitting phenomenon is based on the following principle. When an organic material layer is interposed between an anode and a cathode, if voltage is applied between two electrodes, electrons and holes are injected from the cathode and the anode to the organic material layer. The electrons and the holes injected into the organic material layer are recombined to form an exciton, and the exciton is reduced to a bottom state to emit light. The organic light emitting device using the principle may be generally constituted by a cathode, an anode, and an organic material layer interposed therebetween, for example, an organic material layer including a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, a light emitting layer and an electron transport layer.

The material used in the organic light emitting device is mostly a pure organic material or a complex compound of an organic material and metal, and may be classified into a hole injection material, a hole transport material, a light emitting material, an electron transport material, an electron injection material and the like according to the purpose. Herein, an organic material having a p-type property, that is, an organic material easily oxidized and electrochemically stable while the organic material is oxidized, is mainly used as the hole injection material or the hole transport material. Meanwhile, an organic material having an n-type property, that is, an organic material easily reduced and electrochemically stable while the organic material is reduced, is mainly used as the electron injection material or the electron transport material. A material having both p-type and n-type properties, that is, a material that is stable while the material is oxidized and reduced, is preferable as the light emitting layer material, and a material having high light emitting efficiency for conversion of the exciton into light when the exciton is formed is preferable.

In addition, it is preferable that the material used in the organic light emitting device further have the following properties.

First, it is preferable that the material used in the organic light emitting device have excellent thermal stability. The reason is because joule heat is generated by movement of electric charges in the organic light emitting device. Recently, since NPB, which has mainly been used as the hole transport layer material, has a glass transition temperature of 100° C. or lower, there is a problem in that it is difficult to apply NPB to an organic light emitting device requiring a high current.

Second, holes or electrons injected into the organic light emitting device should be smoothly transported to a light emitting layer, and the injected holes and electrons should not be released out of the light emitting layer in order to obtain an organic light emitting device that is capable of being driven at low voltage and has high efficiency. To this end, a material used in the organic light emitting device should have an appropriate band gap and HOMO or LUMO energy level. In the case of PEDOT:PSS currently used as a hole transport material in an organic light emitting device manufactured by a solution coating method, since a LUMO energy level thereof is lower than that of an organic material used as a light emitting layer material, it is difficult to manufacture an organic light emitting device having high efficiency and a long life span.

In addition, the material used in the organic light emitting device should have excellent chemical stability, electric charge mobility, and interfacial characteristic with an electrode or an adjacent layer. That is, the material used in the organic light emitting device should be little deformed by moisture or oxygen. Further, appropriate hole or electron mobility should be ensured so as to balance densities of the holes and of the electrons in the light emitting layer of the organic light emitting device to maximize the formation of excitons. Additionally, an interface with an electrode including metal or metal oxides should be favorable so as to ensure stability of the device.

Accordingly, there is a need to develop an organic material having the aforementioned requirements in the art.

Formulas A-x and B-x are generally manufactured by the following process.

Formulas C-x and D-x are generally manufactured by the following process.

The conjugation length of the compound has a close relationship with an energy band gap. Specifically, the energy band gap is reduced as the conjugation length of the compound increases. As described above, since the core of the compound includes a limited conjugation, the core has a large energy band gap.

In the present invention, it is possible to synthesize the compound having various energy band gaps by introducing various substituent groups to positions of Ar₁, R, R′ and R″ of the core structure having the large energy band gap as described above. Generally, it is easy to control the energy band gap by introducing the substituent group to the core structure having the large energy band gap, but in the case where the core structure has the small energy band gap, it is difficult to control the energy band gap so as to increase by introducing the substituent group. Further, in the present invention, it is possible to control HOMO and LUMO energy levels of the compound by introducing various substituent groups to positions of Ar₁, R, R′ and R″ of the aforementioned core structure.

In addition, compounds having intrinsic characteristics of the introduced substituent groups may be synthesized by introducing various substituent groups to the aforementioned core structure. For example, it is possible to synthesize a material satisfying conditions required in each organic material layer by introducing the substituent group mainly used in a hole injection layer material, a hole transport material, a light emitting layer material and an electron transport layer material used to manufacture the organic light emitting device to the core structure.

Since the compound includes an amine structure in the core structure, the compound may have an appropriate energy level as the hole injection and/or hole transport material in the organic light emitting device. In the present invention, it is possible to implement a device having low driving voltage and high light efficiency by selecting the compound having an appropriate energy level according to the substituent group among the compounds and using the compound in the organic light emitting device.

In addition, the energy band gap can be finely controlled, a property at an interface between organic materials can be improved, and the purpose of the material can become various by introducing various substituent groups to the core structure.

Meanwhile, the compound has a high glass transition temperature (Tg), such that thermal stability is excellent. Such increase in thermal stability is an important factor providing driving stability to the device.

In addition, the organic light emitting device according to the present invention is an organic light emitting device including a first electrode, a second electrode, and one or more organic material layers interposed between the first electrode and the second electrode, and one or more layers of the organic material layers include the compound.

The organic light emitting device according to the present invention may be manufactured by using a manufacturing method and a material of a general organic light emitting device, except that one or more organic material layers are formed by using the aforementioned compound.

The compound may be formed to the organic material layer by a solution coating method as well as a vacuum deposition method when the organic light emitting device is manufactured. Herein, the solution coating method means spin coating, dip coating, inkjet printing, screen printing, a spray method, roll coating and the like, but is not limited thereto.

The organic material layer of the organic light emitting device of the present invention may have a single layer structure, or a multilayered structure in which two or more organic material layers are laminated. For example, the organic light emitting device of the present invention may have a structure including a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, a light emitting layer, an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer and the like as an organic material layer. However, the structure of the organic light emitting device is not limited thereto, but may include a smaller number of organic material layers.

Accordingly, in the organic light emitting device of the present invention, the organic material layer may include one or more layers of the hole injection layer, the hole transport layer, and the layer injecting and transporting holes simultaneously, and one or more layers of the layers may include the compound represented by Formula 1.

In another exemplary embodiment, the organic material layer includes the light emitting layer, and the light emitting layer includes the compound represented by Formula 1. In an example thereof, the compound represented by Formula 1 may be included as a phosphorescent host material of the light emitting layer.

A glass substrate (corning 7059 glass) on which a thin film of ITO (indium tin oxide) was applied to a thickness of 800 Å was immersed in distilled water having a detergent dissolved therein, and washed by the ultrasonic wave. In this case, the detergent as used herein was a product commercially available from Fisher Co. and the distilled water was one which had been twice filtered by using a filter commercially available from Millipore Co. ITO was washed for 30 minutes, and washing with ultrasonic waves was then repeated twice for 10 minutes by using distilled water. After the completion of washing with distilled water, washing with ultrasonic waves was carried out by using solvents such as isopropyl alcohol, acetone and methanol, and the resultant product was dried and transported to the plasma washing machine. Further, the substrate was dry-washed by using the oxygen plasma for 5 min, and then transported to the vacuum deposition machine.

Hexanitrile hexaazatriphenylene (hereinafter, referred to as “HAT”) that was the compound of the following Formula was deposited in a heat vacuum in a thickness of 50 Å on the prepared ITO transparent electrode to form the thin film. The interfacial property between the substrate and the hole injection layer can be improved by this thin film. Subsequently, Formula 1-1-2 was deposited in a thickness of 1200 Å on the thin film to form a hole transport and electron blocking layer. Subsequently, the light emitting layer was formed in a thickness of 250 Å by doping 10 wt % of Ir(ppy)₃ on CBP. BCP was formed as the hole blocking layer in a thickness of 50 Å, and, subsequently, the electron transport layer material of the following Formula was deposited in a thickness of 300 Å to form the electron transport layer. Lithium fluoride (LiF) in a thickness of 12 Å and aluminum in a thickness of 2000 Å were subsequently deposited on the electron transport layer to form a cathode.

In the aforementioned process, a deposition rate of the organic material was maintained at 0.3 to 0.8 Å/sec. In addition, the deposition rate of lithium fluoride of the cathode was maintained at 0.3 Å/sec, and the deposition rate of aluminum was maintained at 1.5 to 2.5 Å/sec.
